Titanium Grade for Aluminum Anodizing Racks

Q. Which is the best grade of Titanium for jig used for Aluminum Anodizing?

A. Hi Gangal,

Chemically pure titanium is graded by strength, with grade 1 being the least strong, and grade 4 the strongest. Some manufacturers claim their rack tip are made of Grade 4, and that seems to make sense to me for the tips and teeth. I see other manufacturers offering grades 1 and 2.

My guess is that Grade 4 will prove more durable for tips and teeth, but for the remainder of the rack it doesn't matter, and Grade 1 will be least expensive.

Further opinions and comments welcomed.

Luck & Regards,
